sharply criticized the uni-
versity for failing to de-
nounce the event.
The board flatly rejected
claims by officials that the
"Feast" was a student
prank. It noted that anti-
Semitic slogans such as "We
hate Jews" and "Up Hitler"
daubed on the walls of a
men's residence hall made it
clear that the raucus Nazi
party was more than a joke.

JERUSALEM — "There
is a trend among youngsters
in Israel to acquaint them-
selves with their Jewish
heritage. They are seeking
to become aware bf the great
social and moral values
which will bring meaning
into their lives, and they are
turning to Jewish sources
and traditions for the great
ideals which have always
been a part of our heritage."
In this optimistic fashion
spoke Prof. Ephraim Katzir,
former president of Israel
and honorary chairman of
Gesher Educational Af-
filiates.
Prof. Katzir's -affiliation
with Gesher began in 1973,
shortly after he became
president. The organization
was then in its infancy.
Today Gesher Educational
Affiliates provides pro-
grams in Jewish identity for
50,000 Israeli youth each
year through its Gesher
Encounters and Institutes
for Zionist and Jewish Edu-
cation.
Gesher's David Schoen
Institute has created cur-
riculum material such as
the Bnai Mitzva program
now being implemented
in 2,000 classes in non-
religious schools across
Israel.
Gesher's approach is to
bring together religious and
non-religious youth in open
dialogue. Prof. Katzir spoke
most enthusiastically about
this achievement. "Gesher,
because of its openess, has
found a way to build a
bridge between observant
and non-observant
youngsters in Israel. This
has been accomplished
through the seminars at
Beit Gesher in Safed, where
the dialogue has been open
and frank."
In 1974, Prof. Katzir in-
vited some members of
Gesher to the President's
House in Jerusalem for Sec-
ond Hakafot at the conclu-
sion of Simhat Torah. "I be-
lieved that a promising
movement had been
started, and this was the
way the President of Israel
could encourage it.
"I also wanted to meet the
youth, observant and non-
observant, at first hand.
Moreover, as an experimen-
tal scientist, I wanted to
find out what their personal
reactions were to the
Gesher Program . . .
"I chatted with these
boys and girls," the pro-
fessor continued. "I was
deeply touched not only
by their spirited singing
era. Recent events in
France and elsewhere in
Europe . suggest that the
function may well have a
sinister significance," the
board's statement said.
